Hi! Join us (Dedri and Jenny) in our happy little crochet corner. We share crochet patterns and tutorials (and the occasional cake or craft).
I am very pleased to introduce you to the ‘My Voyage Shawl’ I designed for my recent Australia/New Zealand Cruise adventure. It uses one cake of Scheepjes Whirl and has a make-as-you-go beaded edge on one side
Below, you will find Stephanie’s instructions for turning Sophie’s Garden into a Cocoon Cardigan (or, as I like to think of it, into a squishy warm hug). I have not tried this yarn yet as it is an Australian brand, but I have heard many good things about it and the colour range, although not large, is impressive * Erika Knight Vintage Wool – if pure wool is your thing, this range is perfect for you. I have not tried this yarn yet as it is an Australian brand, but I have heard many good things about it and the colour range, although not large, is impressive * 100% Cotton Scheepjes Cahlista – if you prefer pure cotton garments, this striking range of colours will be perfect for you. In this case, Stephanie’s Cocoon Cardigan has introduced me to Maria’s wonderful designs, for which I am MOST grateful.
To join on the diagonal with the (Sc, ch 1, skip 1) Join, you will start with the bottom right square (bottom left, if you are left-handed). Insert your hook into the first st of the square closest to you, then insert your hook into the second st of the square farthest away from you and make a sc through both layers. Now that you have attached the square above the corner square, you need to attach the square next to it, so flip that square over onto the corner square so that their RS are facing each other. Ch 1, skip the next st of both layers, and sc through the next st of both layers*. Repeat from * to * until you get to the corner sp.
Make one in each of Yarn A to F. Into the ring, 3ch (counts as hdc + ch-1), 1hdc, *2dc, 1tr, 2ch, 1tr, 2dc*, 1hdc, 1ch, place SM, 1hdc. * Repeat from * to * 4 times, join to top of the beg ch-3 with a sl st, fasten off and work away ends. Join Yarn E by making a sl st in any ch-1 sp, 1ch, (1sc, 1ch, 1sc) in the same ch-1 sp, 14BPhdc. 1hdc in each of the remaining 5 ch-2 sps, join to the first hdc with a sl st, fasten off and work away ends.
